| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Adorable OP song and characters. One major kiss spotted already <3 how sweet. Actually multiple times. Wow. This is definitely what I had expected somewhat. :o Some of the artwork was okay I guess. http://imgur.com/aVwP8d4 ED song is cute :3 |

| My heart is now mush, all that sweet yuri kissing from the OP to the Ending itself, very nice allusion with the other females in the cast kissing because as a shipper I don't mind a entire cast coupling happening in-universe. Not only is this anime super heart melting and diabetes inducing it's really silly. The Opening is one of the best I heard for so far this season with a very catchy and perfectly themed ED. The entire cast is fun, sweet, and enjoyable. 9.5/10 |

| To be honest, I didn't expect that. |

Hope so, I hyped myself today lol. |

| It was basically great. I loved this. Time went by so fast while I was watching this. I can't wait ”Another Sakura color” in the next episode. My only concern is those quakes of breasts. Did they really need that? |

My only concern is those quakes of breasts. Did they really need that? This. And those legs. I can't remember where I saw someone posting this being a hentai but with kissing and jokes instead of schlicking and slurping. With that much of kissing, this could be a drinking game. Still it's nice. I'm hungry for yuri. And I hope to see more of Shizuku. |

If this isn't well animated I don't know what is: http://i.imgur.com/6LgHuq1.gif (animated by Yasuyuki Ebara apparently). Though I can see where you're coming from since this show is channeling the Hidamari Sketch-like minimalistic style which isn't too surprising since some staff members are carrying over from that show. Seems like quite a few people have emigrated from Studio Shaft to DEEN as seen from Sankarea or Rozen Maiden: Zurückspulen. |

It has Hidamari vibes because there's someone from Hidamari's staff working on this as well. But I said that about the animation in the first place because of scenes like the one at 10:18mins, where Haruka is running at 2 frames per minute. I've never seen Sankarea. Rozen Maiden from DEEN was better than I thought but I still prefer the first ones. |
| Wonderful show. Amazing episode. Absolutely breath-taking opening sequence. I was waiting for this kind of anime since forever. My dreams came true. I'm so happy. |
| The simple fact that this is 24min long is a bless, since pupa is only 5 min (apparently it is not only produced by studio DEEN but...) I was really looking forward to this and I'm not disappointed at all!.I was able to watch it Raw and understand every word since it was really faithful to the manga. They even look cuter than in the manga (I like the pastel colors). Can't wait for the next episode.! I wonder if it will be 12/13 or even 24 episodes long!

Oh, don't worry about that, I'm not claiming that it is at all since it can't hold a candle concerning animation to the likes of Bones and KyoAni consistency-wise this season. My point is basicaly that Deen's out-put have been much more stylish and even artistic at some points recently with the most recent one being Meganebu which amount of animation was near to none but damn that art direction was wonderfully unique. |

| Too much fanservice...those random naked scene and cosplay scene in op/ed... also, the control of the pace can be better. still a cute and sweet episode , so many kiss scene :D |
| Didn't want to wait for the subs so I just opened the manga on another window while watching the anime :D "Here it comes!" *holds breath* *kiss scene* WIN. |
"May those who accept their fate be granted happiness." "May those who defy their fate be granted glory." |
| Best anime of this season. I was right to watch this at the very end of the day after all those other animes... |

| As the episode was being aired in Tokyo, Hiromi Igarashi (五十嵐 裕美) who is the voice actress for Shizuku, the girl with red-and-white ribbons on her twintails, tweeted, "It's not ecchi!" 五十嵐裕美 @HiRoMi_ig 7h エッチじゃないやいｯ!!

| Oh man, all dat kissing in the OP and in the show itself. The flip part was hilarious as hell. |
Sinonis said: Wasn't it like 9th place in top 20? Anyway, cute gif.Glad we got yuri anime for a long time.Reading on other sites Sakura trick is really one of most hyped anime this season.Kisses in the op and kisses in the ed All the kisses. All the comedy. All the everything. This is glorious episode http://i.imgur.com/C3sBEG9.gif Suprise >>> Chu :D |
| omg so kawaii and very Yuru YURI (literally) |
 |
| Where's the sub? I've been waiting for like 6 Hours now and nothing has been pooping out so far. |
| Sasuga DEEN, saving the anime industry one show at a time. I'm not sure how they even managed to top Pupa. But seriously, this and ImoCho are my guilty pleasures of the season. Yuri is the purest form of love |
 |
| Just skimmed the episode so far, but I didn't really care for the fanservice. I was hoping for something more like Aoi Hana, though I knew it wouldn't be as serious. |
| for those who wait... :D [Mezashite] Sakura Trick - 01 [CE6A102E].mkv |

It's kind of ironic and funny coming from her. Can't help but chuckle. Brilliant VA though :) |
"May those who accept their fate be granted happiness." "May those who defy their fate be granted glory." |
| This was great. Yuri aside. It was cute, innocent, and passionate. Well maybe not overly innocent. The edge was taken off by the comedy which I think makes the watch so much more enjoyable. Gives it a different feel then if it was straight drama. The art was...bubbly...and colorful which fits this perfectly. I agree with a few others that the boob bounce was a little > > but all good. First episode satisfied my hope for this to be good so I'm happy. xchee said: As the episode was being aired in Tokyo, Hiromi Igarashi (五十嵐 裕美) who is the voice actress for Shizuku, the girl with red-and-white ribbons on her twintails, tweeted, "It's not ecchi!" 五十嵐裕美 @HiRoMi_ig 7h エッチじゃないやいｯ!! I concur with her based off the first episode. It was actually pretty tastefully done and I saw many a opportunity where it could of been what she is voicing it's not lol. She could of just said it's not TLR caliber lol. |

| Dat Yuri *A*...Definitely a keeper :D The OP & ED are really good. All that yuri kissing!! My Heart >.< And the dance was nice. Love the pics in the ED. Yuu x Haruka is just too much <3<3 They're just made for eachother :D So cute and adorable <3 All the kisses were so good and long :3 Especially loved the one on the veranda when she kissed her to shut her up and the one she said only for a second and lasted much more than that XD They totally got addicted to kissing now hahaha Haruka's jealousy is so lol too XD The Veranda jumping scene fabulously defied all logic hahaha |
 |
| Attention all Sakura Trick viewers, Yay Lesbians!!!!!! That is all. |
| Yes. YES. YES!!! I've been waiting for this... Can't say I'm disappointed! I'm loving this series more than I already did. Thank you DEEN! ;A; Dem kisses. I loved the animation in the whole episode, but the kiss scenes were absolutely beautiful. So two chapters an episode, huh? By next episode they'll already have caught up to what's translated in English, so this should be fun! |
| Yes! Those kisses ♥（｡✿‿✿｡）❤ my Heart! ^_^ |
| My heart is going to explode! I don't know how I'm going to be able to wait an entire week between episodes. Love, love, loved it! |
 |
| What I wanted: a nice, innocent yuri romance. What I got: gross, fanservice yuri made for a straight male audience. Seriously, those kisses were incredibly uncomfortable to watch. It felt like I was watching a hentai. |
 |
| An anime all about Yuri love with this many kisses. I don't know if I can handle it. Finally. It's pretty much perfect. 5/5 |
 |
| The series is directed by Ken'ichi Ishikura, who also worked on several episodes of Hidamari Sketch as episode director and Hidamari Sketch × Hoshimittsu, where he went in-charge of the entire series. There should also be some ex-SHAFT staff working on the episode thus the SHAFT-like animation. That said, I need a heart replacement. |

Alone on a Friday night? Remember that DIO did nothing wrong! |
| Man a lot of people unironically like this shit. It's just that easy and simple to get peoples praises. Just throw in some cutesy girls, add a dash of fan service, a touch of yuri and some gimmicky shots here and there and you'll have people proclaiming it the greatest thing ever. This isn't quite as awful as that show where the ghost rapes some little sister but it's right up there. |

 |
| This show defines the Awesomeness of Winter 2014. Fuck You KLK, You were gloriously outgrown by Sakura Trick. The Kisses were just awesome. I LOVED IT. ANIME of the season 'nuff said. |
Yeah :3 So far so good, can't wait for more YURI scenes. |
